| Powell was right, motherfuckers, no matter how much he says he lied. When he told the United Nations that he totally knew for sure there were Weapons of Mass Destruction, his sole error was in claiming those evil weapons were in Iraq, when they were actually in the UN headquarters itself, only to be found by a cleaning crew four-and-a-half |

This quote from his interview in GQ is very relevant to the political debate about terrorism, especially today of all days. Q: Isn't the new global threat we face even more dangerous?
